He was born to kill her…but he’ll risk all to save her
Wild Hunt, Book 1
Every day, Harley fights the urge to embrace the dark heritage that could turn her Unseelie. Evil. Bad. A nightmarish monster like the ones that wiped out her family. The only thing keeping her on this side of Seelie is a promise made to the ghostly man who saved her that terrible night.
Whenever she’s tempted, she calls up a vision of his eyes. Hears his voice calling her back from the brink of madness. Years later, when she returns to the scene of her living hell, he’s her only hope for salvation.
Calan, the leader of the Wild Hunt, was created to protect mankind from the Unseelie Court, not love one of them. He never expected the rightness he felt with her all those years ago would explode into desire.
But saving her from a fate she can’t escape could damn them both…and leave the world open for destruction.
Warning: Contains a half-fae woman who could really use a Seelie version of AA to stay clean and monster-free. And a rider of the Wild Hunt who’ll take any risk to keep her safe from her enemies. Including himself.
Note: This book was previously published. It has been expanded and re-edited.
A long moment passed where they watched each other, two strangers on the verge of becoming so much more. The full impact hit her, left her a little shaky inside but not anxious. No, excitement sped her pulse.
She licked her lips, already envisioning what they’d do together. “So, am I right?”
He slid his hungry gaze to her breasts. The points stood erect, and the sheen of her skin betrayed how hot she’d gotten from touching herself.
“Oh yes, I’ll fuck you, my Harley. Sometimes hard and fast. Other times so damn slowly, you’ll beg me to fill you up.” He met her eyes. “I’ll take you so often and in so many ways, you’ll want me to be the center of your world as you are now mine.”
He released her wrists and covered one breast with his hand. The hard point pushed against his callused skin, and a jolt of electricity raced down her spine. He captured the tip she’d teased minutes ago. The small pinch arched her back.
“Do you like that?”
She flicked her gaze from his long fingers holding her nipple to his face and nodded. “Do it again.”
One corner of his mouth rose. He rolled the tip, and she gasped. Another tug clenched her core. “Beautiful. I can’t wait to watch that look pass over your face when I fuck you.”
She whimpered.
The smile giving him a roguish look turned wicked. “You do want me to ram my cock inside you and make you come apart around my dick”—he ran the tip of his tongue over his upper lip—“don’t you?”
“I…I…” She couldn’t get the words out.
He released her hands and sat back so he knelt between her thighs. Her attention shifted from the desire stamped on his face to the long length of his erection molded by his pants.
“Touch it.”
My Review
This book was fantastic.
Harley is the daughter of the Unseelie King, just another pawn to
him. Calan is the leader of the Wild
Hunt. He was created to hunt her kind,
except he wants her for his own. Harley
is different from all her fae siblings though.
She has reached adulthood and reached maturity as well. She meets Calan nine years ago and he gave
her the knowledge she needed to escape those who are after her. She aslo made two vows to him; one to come
back to him and two to fight the darkness and stay light. Harley does both. She was unsure if Calan was real for a while
but now she knows he is and forced to face more challenges. Calan wants her for his mate. He tells her he can save her if she releases
him from his prison. She does but they
haven’t been told everything. They are
all just players in one big game and they don’t know all the other players or
the rules. Will they be able to have
their happily ever after? Calan has made
a vow to save Harley, his brothers and sisters, as well as the human race. Will he be able to do everything? This book was a great read, emotional at
times for sure. Both Calan and Harley
have been through so much, they have finally found their soul mate in each
other but they might not get the chance to be together. By being mated to Harley, Calan can no longer
sense anyone who has taken in her blood or their minions. Harley can still sense them but Calan wants
to protect her at all costs and won’t endanger her. Harley may be just the key they have been
looking for though. I really felt for
Harley. For most of her life she didn’t
know that she was fae or tainted. Her
mother kept her looked up at home for her safety however she never explained
why to Harley. As she grew older she
just felt trapped and wanted to escape if only for a small time. There are lots of different forces at work in
the book. No one knows if the choice
they make is really the right one. They
only have their feelings and instincts to go by. But even with that they aren’t completely
sure. The characters in this book are
great and I can’t wait to read more about them.
I read the prequel book before reading this one and I recommend you read
it first as well. It sets you up for
this story and tells you how the Wild Hunt was created and gives you some
background. These were the first book I
have by Nancy Corrigan and I really liked both of them. I will be keeping my eye out for the third
book in this series when it is released.
Hunter Sacrificed, book 0.5…a free read
My Review ~4 Stars: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1483896820?book_show_action=false
Hunter Forsaken, book 2.0…releases 2-16-16. Available for pre-order.
A true romantic at heart, Nancy Corrigan is convinced there’s a knight in shining armor for every woman (or man), but you won’t find damsels in distress in her stories. She adores pairing alpha heroes with women strong enough to match them and bring them to their knees. She also enjoys flipping the traditional roles in romances because her motto is—love and people should never be forced to conform to anyone’s norm.
She holds a degree in chemistry and has worked in research but now focuses on ensuring quality. She considers it the perfect outlet for her as she’s the first to admit she has some OCD tendencies. It carries over into her writing life too. While engrossed in a novel, she has a habit of forgetting to eat and sleep. Fortunately, she’s married to her own knight in shining armor who understands her oddities and loves her anyway. They reside in Pennsylvania with their three children, dog, snake and guinea pigs. Her other interests include tattoos, animals, classic cars and all things spooky and sexy.
